County: Rose Street Reconstruction Project To Begin Feb. 28

COUNTY NEWS RELEASE

Los Alamos County Public Works Department, in partnership with contractor TLC Plumbing & Utility, will begin work on the Rose Street Reconstruction Project on Rose Street from Central Ave. to Peach Street, including sections of Peach Street and Spruce Street. The contractor will be in the area performing preliminary work, such as mobilization, construction staking, and staging area setup beginning February 28, 2024. Construction is scheduled to begin the following week on Monday, Mar. 4. The project scope was presented at the public meeting conducted during the regularly scheduled Transportation Board meeting in May 2023.

Hours of Construction:

TLC Plumbing & Utility will work from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Thursday, with the addition of Fridays and weekends, as needed. Residents can expect large equipment, and construction noise.

Traffic Impact (see map below):

To minimize disruption, the contractor will notify and coordinate with affected businesses and residents for certain construction logistics, utility upgrades, and traffic changes as work progresses. Services such as mail delivery, trash and recycling collection, school bus, transit, and emergency services will be maintained.

Work will start with a full road closure on Rose Street from Central Ave. to Circle Drive. Traffic should follow all detour signs. The detours will ensure ingress and egress to businesses and residences. Motorists and pedestrians are advised to use caution around construction activities and avoid entering the work zone.
